Yep, the problem is - if u are using a separate mouse on the client disables server's keyboard as well.

Is your Barrier server running on Mac?
If it is, your Mac probably have a service or app that left Secure Input active (used to protect you when entering passwords). To check if any app is using secure input, run: ioreg -l -w 0 | grep SecureInput. If you see anything other than blank/empty, that means there is a app/service (or many) with such feature activated.
